For every negative theres a positive and for every positive there is a negative

Usually within an atom, the protons and electrons are equal to make the atom have a neutral charge.

However, there are cases in which the protons and electrons are different, such as Cations and Anions. Cations end up having a positive charge (less electrons than protons), and Anions end up having a negative charge (more electrons than protons).

I hope this helps!

Consider the reactionI2(g) + Cl2(g)2ICl(g)Using standard thermodynamic data at 298K, calculate the entropy change for the surrou
Georgia [21]

We know,

\Delta H_{I_2(g)}=62.438\ KJ/mol\\\\\Delta H_{Cl_2(g)}= 0.0\ KJ/mol\\\\\Delta H_{ICl(g)}=17.78\ KJ/mol

For given reaction, I_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\ -->\ 2ICl(g)

\Delta H_{rxn}=2\Delta H_{ICl(g)}-\Delta H_{I_2(g)}-\Delta H_{Cl_2(g)}\\\\\Delta H_{rxn}=2(17.78)-0-62.438\ KJ/mol\\\\\Delta H_{rxn}=-26.878\ KJ/mol

For , 2.41 moles of I_2 :

\Delta H_{rxn}=2.41\times (-26.878)\ KJ\\\\\Delta H_{rxn}=-64.78\ KJ

We know :

\Delta S = -\dfrac{\Delta H_{rxn}}{T}\\\\\Delta S = -\dfrac{-64.78}{298}\ KJ/K\\\\\Delta S =-0.21738 \ KJ/K\\\\\Delta S=-217.38\ J/K

Hence, this is the required solution.

What types of reactions are these 3 chemical equations?-
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

*2Kl+Pb(NO3)2=PbI2+2KNO3: double replacement.

*2Al+3CuSO4=Al2(SO4)3+3Cu: single replacement.

*C2H5OH+3O2=2CO2+3H2O: combustion.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the required, it turns out necessary for us to recall the five types of reactions, combination, decomposition, single and double replacement and combustion as shown on the attached figure.

In such a way, since the first reaction follows the pattern AB+CD-->AD+CB we infer it is double replacement; the second reaction follows the patter A+BC-->AC+B and therefore it is single replacement; and the last one follows the pattern of combustion reaction due to the presence of CO2 and H2O on the products side.

Regards!

How many water molecules are produced when 5.2g O2 are reacted
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Total number of water molecules produced after the reaction is 1.956×10^22 molecules of water.

Explanation:

By the reaction

H2+ 1/2 O2 → H2O

Moles of O2 = 5.2\32

⇒1 mole of O2 produce 1  mole of H2O

  1 mole O2 will produce 2 mole  of H2O

Therefore, 5.2\32 mole will produce {2}\times{\frac{5.2}\times{32}}

⇒ Molecules of H2O  will be

         {2}\times{\frac{5.2}{32}} = \frac{x}{{6.02}\times{10^23}}

= 1.956×10^22 moleculesof H2O.
